Default toilet overflow pipe flapper clamp source?

My latest toilet issue is that since I have one of those flappers that
slides down around my brass overflow tube, the flapper is having the
tendency to creep after days or weeks, creating a leak. Question: is
there a clamp with ears that I could tighten around the overflow pipe so
that I can use a standard flapper that clips to the ears? I really
think this would solve the creeping, but I am unable to find a web
source carrying such a clamp. Thanks.



I've not seen a clamp with "ears."
Maybe yer lookin' fer something like a lock ring?
The Chinese say, "wock ring."
